Okanagan Women’s Nutrition

Supporting Women’s Health, Through it All!

Helping Women, Athletes and People with Chronic Conditions with Better Nutrition

Nutrition Consultation

$75/50 min session

Our passion and purpose! A personalized approach to create a supportive plan for people who want to understand their body and use nutrition as a stepping stone to healthy living. From skin health, digestive and hormone health, or a couch to 5km plan or nutrition challenges around menopause…Our main focus is women’s health, triathletes, sports nutrition, and chronic conditions.

Together we will create a practical plan to support you. Meal plans, recipes, strategies, coping, are some of the many possible topics. This is a personalized approach, and you are welcome to bring ideas for what would support you best.

Life in the Next Chapter

$75/50 min session

Do you find yourself constantly walking on eggshells? Questioning your own reality? Feeling drained and confused?

This is personalized support for the messy middle of life - when things feel uncertain, overwhelming, or like your world is falling apart and you are not sure what to do next. If this feels like where you are at, these sessions are for you. You don't have to have it all figured out, you don't need to be fixed, and you don't have to be perfect and put together! (It is preferred if you are not!!) We slow things down, and give space for the mess - things such as separation, litigation, family conflicts, health challenges, life transitions, empty nesting, career changes, loss and grief. You are not broken, you are not alone. These sessions help you feel steady and supported with what you are carrying.

The focus of these sessions can be physical, mental, emotional and spiritual wellness, as best supportive to you.

Your Symptoms Tell A Story…

I help women of all ages and stages. As they say, women are not small men. We have unique physiology and needs. Proper nutrition can make a world of difference when it comes to women’s health and longevity.

How would it feel to be free from period cramps, cyclical moods, menopause kicking your butt, missing work and feeling lousy? Is there a link between what you are eating and how you feel? Would you like to reduce reactions to pollens and foods, heal your digestive system? I can help you fuel your body properly for your next chapter, be it the couch to 5 km or the triathlon that you want to do or the chronic condition you are recovering from. Take that next step and let’s journey together as you re-align, re-connect and re-balance!

We aren’t about prescriptive diets, restriction or one-size-fits-all approaches. You have a story, you have wisdom, your needs matter. Body and mind are connected!! You might feel stuck, overwhelmed, and be locked in a stress loop. You are welcome here! At Okanagan Women’s Nutrition, our tools are nutrition, coaching, counselling, BioEnergetics (BIE) and stress management.

Kate is a Nutritionist with her BSc in Dietetics, a Bachelor of Education, and her Professional Integrated Nutrition Diploma from Rhodes Wellness College, and an ICF-certified life coach. She is a member of the Canadian Association of Natural Nutrition Practitioners (CANNP).

Deep Calm Foot Reflexology

$70/60 min session

Are you locked in a stress response? You deserve a break!

Enjoy a relaxing foot reflexology treatment, with me - a certified foot reflexologist - to bring you out of “fight or flight” and back to “rest and digest”. This is a 60 minute treatment and includes the essential oils that you enjoy most.

This deeply relaxing foot reflexology session is designed to support overall balance, relaxation, and well-being. Reflexology works by applying gentle pressure to specific points on the feet that correspond with different areas of the body, encouraging a state of rest and whole-body relaxation

This session is ideal for those experiencing fatigue, stress, overwhelm, or feeling out of balance and in need of grounding support. Many people find it helps them unwind deeply and reconnect with a state of calm and steadiness.

This is a non-invasive, holistic wellness treatment intended to support overall well-being. It does not diagnose or treat medical conditions.

Cleanse and Calm Foot Soak

$50 per 45 min session or $140/package of 3

Great for people experiencing inflammation, brain fog, skin reactions, stress, fatigue, and those who value a preventative approach to holistic wellness.

This session is deeply relaxing and grounding and designed to support rest, calm and overall wellness. Your feet are immersed in a warm, soothing foot bath experience that encourages the body to unwind from stress and daily tension.

Many clients choose this session when they are feeling overwhelmed, fatigued, emotionally drained, or simply needing time to slow down and reset. It is a gentle way to support the body's natural balance, while creating space for rest and nervous system calm.

This is not a medical treatment and is intended to support relaxation and general wellness as part of a holistic self-care routine.

This is a popular add on to your BIE treatment, foot reflexology, nutrition, counselling or coaching session, or come in just for this. Your choice

Restore and Rebalance Energetic Harmony Session (BIE = BioEnergetics)

$ 50/mini, $95/60min, $249/3 full sessions

Life stress often brings side effects. Have you developed digestive problems? Are certain emotions feeling stuck?

BIE is a non-invasive energetic balancing approach that works with the body's biofeedback responses to support overall well-being. This method uses a gentle testing process to identify energetic patterns in the body and then applies specific, balancing frequency inputs to help encourage balance within the system.

Each session is individualized and focuses on supporting the body's natural ability to regulate and restore balance.

Clients often choose BIE as part of a broader wellness plan to support stress reduction, energetic alignment and overall wellbeing. It helps with food, pollen and other sensitivities, as well as recovery after emotional stress.

BIE is a supportive modality. It does not diagnose, treat or cure medical conditions.

Are you curious about your food or environmental sensitivities? Are you experiencing emotional, hormonal or other reactions? Have you been encouraged to follow a diet free gluten, dairy, soy, egg or other food? This session is for you!

Schedule a time for YOU

Support is waiting for you. What are your goals? It is ok if you don’t know and are just processing and seeking dialogue. What are you holding onto? What are you carrying? What are you creating? Do you need to be heard? How can you improve how you nutritionally support your health?

At Okanagan Women’s Nutrition, we go with you to look inside and explore a deeper connection and perhaps a course correction for your next chapter. Kate has a Bachelor of Science in Dietetics and a Bachelor of Education from UBC, Vancouver. She was a teacher for 5 years before starting a family. She added BioEnergetics training in 2010 with the Institute of Natural Technologies in Oakville, and most recently completed the Professional Integrated Diploma Program, with Rhodes Wellness College in Vancouver. She is currently a Teaching assistant and soon to be an instructor there. With her personal experience and as a mom of 4 kids, including 2 daughters, she has a deep interest in women’s nutrition, throughout the life cycle.

We do not diagnose or cure medical conditions, including “allergies”. We recommend consulting your doctor before changing your diet, using supplements, changing your exercise, and using BIE. We do not use scratch testing or other diagnostic tools. We work with inflammation, its causes and use a lifestyle, nutrition, coaching and counselling approach to improve wellness to reduce stress and inflammation.
